Bio fuels Towards a greener and secure energy future (A Review)
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Fuels are any materials that store potential energy in forms that can be practicably released and used as heat energy. Fuels are required for a variety of purposes, but are utilized chiefly for Transportation and Power Generation. Fossil Fuels will soon be exhausted, if we had replenished fuel sources, what direction should we go in? Any hydrocarbon fuel that is produced from organic matter (living or once living material) in a short period of time (days, weeks, or even months) is considered a Biofuel. One such plant is used as Biofuel known as Jatropha, which can be cultivated anywhere along, roads, railway tracks, on border of farm and even an alkaline soil. It occurs mainly at lower altitude (0-500Cm) with average annual temperature above 20ºC, and rainfall of 300-1000 mm. Biodiesel is eco-friendly. It provides alternative to conventional fuel with clean burning. Biodiesel contain no petroleum, but can be blended with conventional diesel fuel which gives comparable energy to conventional fuel. This fuel can be used in any diesel engine without any modification. Biodiesel is degradable, non toxic and free from sulphur and lead.
